CHARLES R. PRICE AND FRANCIS M. GALLUP, OF CHEROKEE, IOIVA.
FENCE-POST.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 423,809, dated March 18, 1890.
Application filed December 14, 1889. Serial No. 333,717. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that we, CHARLES R. PRICE and FRANCIS M. GALLUP, citizens of the United States of America, residing at Cherokee, in the county of Cherokee and State of Iowa, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Fence-Posts, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
Our invention pertains to an improvement in fence-posts; and it consists in the peculiar structure, combination, and arrangement of parts substantially as hereinafter more fully I v l shown and described.
. The object of the invention is to produce a fence-post whichmay be readily driven into the ground, thus avoiding the necessity of digging post-holes and to admit the fence being readily lowered to rest upon the ground when needful.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a front elevation of our invent-ion, showing the lower section as inserted in the ground. Figs. 2 and 3 are side elevations of the same, the latter showing the post lowered.
In the embodiment of our invention we employ two sections A and B, the lower section B having integral therewith fiukes C and D, tapering toward the pointedend of the section. The upper end of section B is designed to project above the ground and is provided with a recess a and slot b, the latter being designed to receive the sliding pivotor pin 1), thus connecting the upper and lower sections. The pin (2 is designed to be inserted in recess a and through corresponding recesses in the upper section A, and it is removed for lowering the post.
The upper section A of our fence-post is approximately U-shaped, the free ends being inverted and provided with slots or recesses E E, which are designed to fit flush with the upper flukes 0 when the post is an upright position.
From the above description it will be seen that when it is desired to drive a post into the ground the pin cl is removed and the post lifted, causing the pivot 17 to slide to the top of slot 1), and thus disengaging recesses E, with flukes C, which will allow the upper section A to be lowered, as shown in Fig. 3 of the drawings. Thus it will be seen that the person driving the post may stand on the ground while so doing.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. In a fencepost composed of two sections having a sliding pivotal connection, the upper section formed of a single bifurcated piece having its lower ends slotted for reception of the upper flukes on the lower section, substantially as shown and described.
2. I11 a fence-post, the combination of the upper section formed of a single bifurcated piece and the lower'section having the upper and lower series of fiukes, the upper series being designed to fit into the slotted ends of the upper section, the sections having a slidin g pivotal connection, substantially as shown and described.
3. In a fence-post composed of two sections, the upper bifurcated section formed of a single piece, its free ends being slotted and recessed, and the lower section having the series of flukes projecting and diverging therefrom, the upper series being designed to fit into the slotted ends of the upper section, the upper end of the lower section being slotted and recessed for reception of a sliding pivot and a securing-bolt, substantially as shown and described.
In testimony whereof We affix our signatures in the presence of two witnesses.
CHARLES R. PRICE. FRANCIS M. GALLUP. \Vitnesses:
J. S. PARR, J. H. FERNYHOUGH.
